post 04 chev/gmc by chance? reason I ask this is I almost pulled the trigger recently on a 06 2500hd...but was talked out of it...by an old freind who is a chev dealer mechanic..he told me to stay away from any bowtie made after 04, and really avoid any made after 06, ...i was shocked to hear that from him!
That's interesting someone told you to stay away. I for one see it every day, I think the new GM powertrains are better than ever. Granted every manufacturer has some issues, but I really think they are way better. 07 they started with a 5year 100k warranty on the powertrain, would they do this if the engines were no good? Of course not. We have seen a few with cam/lifter issues but other than that they have been pretty good. I've been working on them most of my life too. GM has really stepped up.
